This book discusses the papers presented at Conference ISPEM 2023 which was organized by Wrocław University of Science and Technology, Liverpool John Moores University, and University of Minho. The conference gave an opportunity to exchange experiences in intelligent systems and tools in production, and maintenance, especially its practical application.
This book forms an excellent basis for the development of intelligent manufacturing system for Industry 4.0, digital and distributed manufacturing, and factories for future. This book of new developments and advancement in intelligent control and optimization system for production engineering serves as a good companion to scholars, manufacturing companies, and RTO to improve the efficiency of production systems.
First published in 1998, this deeply engaging volume describes the ‘great transformation’ of our time. While transformation, it is definitely not a transition to the market economy, civil society and democratic rule. Instead, this book maps the growth of the economic jungle, clan society and a corrupted, criminalised state. Capitalists but no capitalism. Watching Warsaw, Prague and Budapest, one should not forget about Zaporizhzhya. After this book, one cannot.
This title was first published in 2000: A study of the diffusion and effective use of ICT in industry in Hungary, Poland, Lithuania and Ukraine. It explores quantitative and qualitative overviews of the current state of affairs with respect to computer-networking in industry, and examines prospects and obstacles.
This book of Advances in Intelligent and Soft Computing contains accepted papers presented at SOCO 2021 conference held in the beautiful and historic city of Bilbao (Spain), in September 2021. Soft computing represents a collection or set of computational techniques in machine learning, computer science, and some engineering disciplines, which investigate, simulate, and analyze very complex issues and phenomena. After a through peer-review process, the 16th SOCO 2021 International Program Committee selected 78 papers which are published in these conference proceedings and represents an acceptance rate of 48%. In this relevant edition, a special emphasis is put on the organization of special ...
Although present-day Ukraine has only been in existence for something over two decades, its recorded history reaches much further back for more than a thousand years to Kyivan Rus’. Over that time, it has usually been under control of invaders like the Turks and Tatars, or neighbors like Russia and Poland, and indeed it was part of the Soviet Union until it gained its independence in 1991. Today it is drawn between its huge neighbor to the east and the European Union, and is still struggling to choose its own path… although it remains uncertain of which way to turn. Nonetheless, as one of the largest European states, with considerable economic potential, it is not a place that can be rea...
by Viktor A. Yushchenko, Prime Minister of Ukraine The intensification of the integration processes on our continent entirely coincides with the national interests of Ukraine, a country which is undoubtedly European both geographically and politically. What kind of Europe do we now have, and what should it be in the future? What should the role of Ukrainian society be in the economic, social, and cultural integration of the countries on the European continent? These questions are the subject of research and scientific analysis by the well-known economists whose work is contained in this book. Let there be no doubt, the strategic goal of Ukraine's foreign policy is the active participation of...
This book gathers timely contributions on metrology and measurement systems, across different disciplines and fields of applications. The chapters, which were presented at the 7th International Scientific-Technical Conference, MANUFACTURING 2022, held on May 16-19, 2022, in Poznan, Poland, cover cutting-edge research and best-practices concerning the use of optical, computed tomographic, and coordinate metrology systems to assess the fidelity of 3D printing processes and products. They discuss strategies for automating, and for improving the effectiveness of quality control and measuring processes. All in all, this book provides both researchers and practitioners with a timely guide on cutting-edge measuring systems supporting the development of modern and additive manufacturing in the context of industry 4.0.
This Element explores the history of urban planning, city building, and city life in the socialist world. It follows the global trajectories of architects, planners, and ideas about socialist urbanism developed during the twentieth century, while also highlighting features of everyday life in socialist cities. The Element opens with a section on the socialist city as it took shape first in the Soviet Union. Subsequent sections take a comparative and transnational approach to the history of socialist urbanism, tracing socialist city development in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), Eastern Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
